Every so often, grading is not 100% accurate due to the conventional system for calculating the grading incre-
ment. The aim of this study was to develop a new calculation system of grading increment provided by different
software, e.g. Lectra, Gerber, Optitex, Boke CAD etc., and to develop a new mathematical solution that enhances
grading precision. For this experiment, three different spec sheets of different buyers were collected, and then
combined and drawn to a solitary sketch for both front and back including all points of measures (POM) for a
more easy comparison. The solutions for the presence of diagonal and curve measurements were provided
with examples using various tools and techniques of different professional garment CAD software. The benefit
of the new approach is not only reduced errors of grading but also guaranteed garment fit without distorting
style features. However, the drawbacks of the measurement method are complicated and time-consuming.
They revolve around the fact that iterative fitting and adjustments are mandatory to improve the fit before bulk
production. The study revealed that this new system slightly increases calculation time, whereas the sample
approval time for order execution reduces considerably.
